Although everyone wishes to know themselves as Zhuge Kongming, predicting the division of the world from his thatched hut, most are more like Jiang Gan, unaware of the past's mysteries even after the fact.
Just like Jiang Gan, Wanyan Zongpan was caught by surprise at what Wanyan Sheng had said, still wondering—if that were the case, why did his father need to ask Yilabo?
He was indeed as the Emperor Jin had said, blocking Shen Yue and others to assert his authority, intending only to disgrace Wanyan Zonghan.
As long as he could gain the upper hand in battles against Wanyan Zonghan, wouldn't he, Wanyan Zongpan, be seen as a useful person in the eyes of his father?
Yilabo finally steadied his trembling and replied, "Yes."
Wanyan Sheng then asked, "But who instructed you to offer such counsel?"
The hall fell silent.
A few glances simultaneously fell upon Wanyan Zonghan, including those of Shen Yue and Yang Yao.
